Les Gourmands - the foodies!

We didn't create a lot of art while we were in Paris, but we certainly ate a lot of art!

No matter where you eat in Paris, from a sidewalk cafe to a hole in the wall restaurant, to a famous restaurant, the food is art!

We may not have created a lot of art during these two weeks, but we’ve eaten a lot of art!

(Creation of art will come later!)

Here a just a few “money shot” photos!
